Seeking Recommendations for Photo Site

TxDoc · January 22, 2002

With the Photopint=Enron deal, I am looking for a good place to upload and store photos to. Any suggestions are appreciated. Please tell me the positive of the site why you chose it.

I use clubphoto.com, but the downside is that unless you pay$$$ your pictures will only stay there for 90 days unless you move them to a new album. For me, most of the pictures I post are for info and 90 days is long enough. The ones that I need longer, I just transfer them to a new album and change the link, or just upload them again.

The good thing is that they will allow you to link your photos to just about any forum or message board...

Thanks for the replies. I am going to check on them all. I still have a Yahoo account and am going to fall back on it as I get these new choices sorted out.

Thanks again.

I just recently set up a picturetrail.com account and the only problem I have is that I can't link pictures to UBB's or VBB's. Maybe I'm just missing out on something.

I thought the same as you, but I found out how you can do it. Log in under your password and everything, click on other options. There is a choice that says "URLs for auctions." This brings up a screen with the URL for every single picture you have, just copy and paste that address for the picture you want to post. That is where my avatar is coming from.

Well, I tried to do that with the pic I wanted for my avatar from picture trail, and I couldn't get it to work. Anyone have any ideas why????

sincityZ71 · January 23, 2002

Scratch that...it worked for like a second, now it isn't again...ahhhh

To bring this back up, I was trying to add my pics from picturetrail to my signature, but IB won't accept that extension file. ANy ideas?

try changing it to .jpg istead of .ptp

CMNTMXR81 · February 11, 2002

I finally got that one figured out. Now I can't get the images to work with the proper image tagging, if you see my post in the photo section, you'll see my attempt at it.
